joining us now from washington is congressman john larson of connecticut. congressman, thank you for joining us during what we know must be a very, very tough time for both you and your constituents. >> well, happy to be with you, alex. it is -- it is a very tough time for the people of newtown and sandy hook, but last evening the president said it best. they inspire all of us through what they have done and the way their first responders and teachers and families and community have come together. let us hope that that inspiration leads to the same kind of resolve that the president had last evening. it's time for us to act. there's ample legislation that's out there that's in the hopper. it needs to be focused not only on gun control, but on mental health and youth violence as well, but not to act is to be complicit because we know this will happen again, and the slaughter of this innocence that took place has got to tug at the heart strings of every single parent in this country, and so it becomes all of our responsibility but certainly in the united stat

finally, do i think washington, d.c. needs to get its act together and enact stricter gun control laws at the federal level? you bet i do. i'm confident, especially after hearing the president and his address today that perhaps -- and the comments of our own delegate organization that perhaps the debate will be renewed in washington and lead to a different result, one other than the result that allowed the assault weapons ban to have expired. the debate is already playing out on the national level. if connecticut or i can be a voice on that level, we are prepared to enter that state right now. our focus now is to help get through this terrible time. first, offers of financial assistance, generous offer, are pouring in. i've asked my staff to handle all of this in an organized fashion. i expect to have something further to announce about this in the next day or two. i know that the community of new town is working with united way on this very subject as well and has set up a fund there. second, i've signed an executive or

emily schmidt, cnn, washington. >> certainly remember speaking with joseph. he made a deep impression on me interviewing him in the wake of that virginia tech university tragedy. our hearts go out to him as well as the family members of all of those killed in that tragedy. here in the newtown, connecticut, tragedy, all the victims of gun violence all across the country. we're sick and tired of covering these stories. we've covered way too many of them over these years. many people are wondering, how easy is it for someone to buy an automatic rifle like the one the shooter used here in newtown, connecticut, at the sandy hook elementary school. we're taking a closer look. much more coming up. a special edition of "the situation room" continues right after this. asty. and cut! very good. people are always asking me how we make these geico adverts. so we're taking you behind the scenes. this coffee cup, for example, is computer animated. it's not real. geico's customer satisfaction is quite real though. this computer-animated coffee tastes dreadful. geico. 15 min
